Chapter 1601

The Cao'an Hall was in complete chaos.

Li Xunhuan looked distressed and at a loss for what to do.

Mei Er was similarly bewildered.

Zhang Xiaoyi lay on the ground, clutching the injury on his palm.

Ba Ying supported Long Xiaoyun, whose arms were dangling limply and whose face was deathly pale.

Several patches of severely corroded ground appeared on the floor, along with some hidden weapons that had been knocked down.

Both the poison and the hidden weapons were Long Xiaoyun's handiwork.

What differed slightly from the original plot was this:

Mei Er had already been displeased to see his front door kicked down.

And with the world-renowned Gu Hanyuan present in the house alongside Li Xunhuan,

he felt significantly more emboldened and bluntly refused to treat Qin Xiaoyi's injury.

Long Xiaoyun, already in a foul mood after being rebuffed by Gu Hanyuan earlier, flew into a rage.

He unleashed his hidden weapons at Mei Er.

Li Xunhuan happened to emerge just in time to witness this scene and naturally intervened to teach Long Xiaoyun a lesson.

Qin Xiaoyi stepped forward to help but was easily struck down by Li Xunhuan.

Immediately after, before Ba Ying could even bring up Long Xiaoyun's father,

Long Xiaoyun spotted an opening in Li Xunhuan's defense and threw the poison at him.

Li Xunhuan, nearly struck in the face by the poison that had already left the floor in tatters, was instantly incensed.

No longer caring that Long Xiaoyun was still a child, he felt that such ruthlessness at a young age would surely make him a menace later in life, so he acted to cripple Long Xiaoyun's martial arts.

Li Xunhuan's actions were clearly much heavier than in the original plot.

Not only did he dislocate both of Long Xiaoyun's arms, but the meridians in his arms were also ruptured by his internal energy.

Even his dantian was destroyed with a single palm strike.

Long Xiaoyun had not only lost all his martial arts but would never be able to practice them again.

If he did not receive timely medical treatment, there was even a risk of him becoming permanently disabled.

Ba Ying shouted, his voice stern but his heart trembling:

"You're dead! How dare you hurt Young Master Long? Do you know who Young Master Long's father is? He is the Fourth Master Long Xiaoyun of Xingyunzhuang, known to everyone in the Northwest Wu Lin!"

Li Xunhuan's face turned pale as he muttered:

"Xingyunzhuang..."

The predecessor of Xingyunzhuang was Li Yuan, which was Li Xunhuan's own home.

His own home had been renamed by someone else.

And the child born to his beloved woman and his sworn brother had been injured by his own hand.

All of this felt as if it were mocking him for ever returning.

Just then, Gu Hanyuan made his entrance.

"It's you!"

Long Xiaoyun felt that fate was truly cruel to have run into this bane, Gu Hanyuan, once again.

Moreover, seeing Gu Hanyuan's dashing and elegant appearance, Long Xiaoyun subconsciously did not want him to see his own disheveled state and turned his head away.

Ba Ying exclaimed at the right moment:
